In April 2009, WIPO was mandated by its member states to carry out a pilot project to establish 尊龙凯时ag体育真人 within the framework of its Development Agenda.

In particular, the project aims to address Recommendation 8 of the Development Agenda, which calls on WIPO to “[facilitate] the national offices of developing countries, especially LDCs, as well as their regional and subregional intellectual property organizations to access specialized databases…”. The project approved by the member states comprises two core clusters of activities, namely access to specialized databases and capacity building.

Since January 2014, the project has been fully mainstreamed within the regular activities of WIPO and forms part of the program on Services for Access to Information and Knowledge.
